I thinned some eggplants today - truly painful. I hated to do it. I had 3 in one pot and 4 in the other, now they are 2 and 1. Compared to what I put out this past weekend, these babies have a long way to go....
Below is a shot of the garden these days - starting to look like something. Under that: turnips, happy bush beans, and beautiful beets!
Some of Shannon's fondest childhood memories include preparing tomatoes for "the deep freeze", shelling peas and snapping beans from her grandparents' large garden, and picking blackberries to be made into cobbler that very afternoon. Last summer the satisfaction of harvesting delicious cantaloupe every other day from her own back yard hooked her on maintaining a food garden of her own. This year she hopes to step up production and force herself to learn more about freezing, canning and dehydrating!
